Krav Maga is a noncompetitive, non traditional martial art and reality based military self defense system, known for its focus on real-world situations. It was developed in Israel and involves striking techniques, grappling, gun, rifle, blunt and edge weapon defense. It is the most effective and fastest growing self defense system available today. It is combat proven, battle tested and continually enhanced.

By statistics the average martial artist will loss a street confrontation. In today’s society the martial arts have evolved to a sport or a kid’s activity. Sport martial artist are at a disadvantage when encountering an attack by a street thug. Tournaments are a sporting event in a controlled environment with rules for safety. MMA or UFC is the closest thing to a street fight yet it is a sporting event and has rules to keep the fighters safe. A street encounter is unscheduled, unpredictable and without any rules. The only trophy that you’ll will in a street encounter is your life! There are no forms like in karate, kung fu and tae kwon do, rules, or set combinations as reactions to attacks. Instead, Krav Maga training focuses on teaching simple self protection techniques which are specifically catered to reality based attack situations. Don’t be a statistic, defy the odds. Be on top of the food chain, so that you can be the last one standing when reality strikes!

When you want to be able to defend yourself and your loved ones – you don’t want it to take years to learn. Traditional martial arts take years to perfect, introducing material in stages that delay becoming at all effective in defending yourself. Reality based self-defense systems typically teach material that is either too little to be effective, or requires too much skill and time to become proficient. Krav Maga practitioners are taught to finish a fight as quickly as possible and therefore all attacks are aimed towards the most vulnerable parts of the body such as neck, groin, knees, eyes, and joints.

Israel formed one of the most respected military forces in the world in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Krav Maga (Contact Combat) is the official self defense system of the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces.)
